Not really a very productive day, especially at work. Something about relaxing after several weeks of blind alleys, last-minute fixes, successful teamwork, and a demo that worked perfectly when it had to. Mostly, I caught up on the last two weeks worth of Linux Weekly News, went to a meeting, and talked to people about this, that, and the other thing.

The thing I feel especially good about is picking the weekend of August 22nd (the last weekend before school starts) to go up to Seattle. I got a happy phone call from pocketnaomi saying that, by sheer coincidence, it's the weekend of cflute's birthday! We win!

Colleen was teary and frustrated in the evening; she very much wants me to go, but also wants to go too, which would be flatly impossible for several reasons. I spent most of the evening in the living room with her, and we snuggled a lot; that helps.

One goal for this weekend is figuring out just which days work best for the Seattle trip. There are a lot of stacked-up chores and other things; I have no idea whether I'll get to very many of them.
